Can I just say that I was never with "it", nor was I hip lol.
As for owning two dozen versions of an album, I don't. I have one version, that's it. I get why someone would do that. I mean, it's called collecting for a reason. I have lots of friends who are heavily into audio gear. They prefer the 70s/80s versions of things. I can guarantee that their love for music is not secondary. |

I also bought Don Tiki's entire discography. Or well, I had to get a mate in the US to buy it for me and reimburse him because of weird Amazon restrictions

While I can’t speak for anyone else here, my understanding of this thread is that it’s more about the bandwagon jumpers and not those who are seriously into vinyl. Maybe I’m wrong but that’s my understanding of this thread. |

I've bought some music on iTunes when I couldn't find anything better, if only for the reason that most streaming services, despite offering you the possibility to download songs for offline listening, will sometimes randomly decide to just delete your downloads for no particular reason, so that's fun

And jam, tear, have to be rewound, have no way of allowing you to find the part you want (unless you have a counter), twist and get ripped up, deteriorate badly over time, can be stepped on, accidentally recorded over, have dropouts, can be wiped by strong magnetic fields etc etc.

Even if they did have some resale value, there isn't any legit online platform that allows such transactions. That's the main reason why I try not to buy too much music in this format. At least with tangible music formats, you can invest and profit later down the line. |

LOL! Well, sometimes, the files aren't available in the desired bit rate or digital format, so one has to pull the plug. But, yes, at least 99% of the time, it's possible to find the recordings you want if you know where to look.
